Ingredients
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 2 small pork tenderloins (about 1 1/2 pounds total)
- kosher salt and black pepper
- 3 tablespoons ketchup
- 1 tablespoon honey
- 1/4 teaspoon ground chipotle chili pepper
- 1 small jicama (about 3/4 pound), peeled and cut into thin sticks
- 1/2 small pineapple, peeled, cored, and cut into thin sticks
- 1 red bell pepper, thinly sliced

Directions
